Title: AVA-Bench: Atomic Visual Ability Benchmark for Vision Foundation Models
Abstract:
arXiv:2506.09082v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The rise of vision foundation models (VFMs) calls for systematic evaluation. A common approach pairs VFMs with large language models (LLMs) as general-purpose heads, followed by evaluation on broad Visual Question Answering (VQA) benchmarks. However, this protocol has two key blind spots: (i) the instruction tuning data may not align with VQA test distributions, meaning a wrong prediction can stem from such data mismatch rather than a VFM
